Hi Max,

Do you all of your SNMP management manually? I'm still learning a lot
about SNMP, and was under the impression that Cacti took a lot of the
pain out of SNMP management, but I'd be interested in hearing how you
administer it in your system just using Nagios + PNP4Nagios if you
don't mind?

Cheers,
Chris
